Last weekend I bought two small fantail goldfish (~1" long). I am quarantining them in a 5-gallon quarantine tank with an established 4-stage filter and aeration. Their water is treated with GoldBuffer and Fresh Trace.

Popeye, bacterial infection
I bought some new Cory catfish for my 75 gallon tropical community and have been battling issues ever since. One by one the catfish died. They would have extremely swollen eyes and their body looked red, then they died. I also had a couple other fish die this way. It happened so fast, within a couple...Last edited by oacason; 12-08-2021, 11:58.

50-Micron Polishing Pad with Meds?

Most people can see particles down to 40-50 microns in size. A speck of pollen might be a good example of a 50-micron particle. Kanaplex, Metroplex,...

Hi,
I'm on my second round of treatment with Kanaplex for my Betta with what looks like is still the beginning/mid stages of dropsy. I understand what I'm involved in, but I am trying to remain hopeful.

Using KanaPlex and Paraguard Together
Just want to know if this is safe to do. My gouramis have a parasitic dactylogyrus infection with probable secondary bacterial or fungal lesion. Now I want to treat both but I want to be sure it is safe to use both Paraguard and Kanaplex together.
Thanks.
